Anus Stimulator

Designed for persons with paralyzing conditions who must maintain bowel function by mechanical stimulation.

Designed for persons with spinal cord injuries or other paralyzing conditions that must maintain regular bowel functions by direct mechanical stimulation. The anus stimulator is more sanitary and effective than manual stimulation, and is usable by persons with a tenodesis grasp. The probe is plastic, which reduces shock normally experienced from cold metal. The collar to control the depth of the probe is attached to a universal cuff that can be adjusted to any size adult hand. May be washed in hot water and chemically sterilized. Overall length is 8" (20 cm). Weight is 3 oz. (143 gm). The probe is .510" (13 mm) diameter x 3 1/2" (90 mm) long.
